The African Youth Charter - Now We Know

So now we know about the African Youth Charter.

Dr Raymonde Agossou came and told us all about . We know she has done amazing work advocating for the rights of the young people and to get the Charter accepted and ratified by so many of our governments. The Charter states we have a right to particpation at the highest level, that we have rights that protect us against the many crises we have discussed this week such as unemployment, HIV/AIDS, Migration, education and bad governance.

We now know about our responsibilitites in the Charter too. And we know we are now challenged to take these on too, as citizens.

We know some of our countries have ratified it but that we also know we are nowhere  near enjoying the rights it says

We also know that will only remain as useful as the paper booklets were handed unless we tell other young people about it and the power it could have, and unless we, collectivley, advocate and hold our governments to account.
